Mullerian mimicry occurs in nature when two or more harmful species look very similar in order to ward off potential predators. This is very advantageous to animals as a means of protection.]]> 2023-06-07 02:51:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mochixlydia/gewumdha9l4up3ok/wish/2616559031 References https://padlet.com/mochixlydia/gewumdha9l4up3ok/wish/2616559871

    Wasp: Has yellow and black striped coloration, stings and is unpalatable.

    Bee: Has same yellow and black striped coloration and is unpalatable as well as can sting. A sort of mutualistic benefit for both wasp and bee as they share the same warning signal.]]>     2023-06-07 02:56:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mochixlydia/gewumdha9l4up3ok/wish/2616564910     References https://padlet.com/mochixlydia/gewumdha9l4up3ok/wish/2616565193 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8jjm8vRIi8]]> 2023-06-07 02:56:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mochixlydia/gewumdha9l4up3ok/wish/2616565193 How does Batesian mimicry help organisms https://padlet.com/mochixlydia/gewumdha9l4up3ok/wish/2616568233 Individuals of the species undergoing batesian mimicry gain the selective advantage of reduced predation because they resemble a toxic species that predators avoid. Thus, they are less likely to be preyed upon, increasing the population size.

  • One species may be preyed on by a predator that can overcome the toxins found in the other 
  • The mimicked traits may not be exactly the same and thus the two species could be differentiated by predators over time
